Defense Tech Blog Goes Big Time

Noah Shachtman and Defense Tech have been invaluable sources for Command Post since its inception.

Today we offer congratulations to Noah on the news that Defense Tech has teamed up with Military.com to bring you a slicker version of the already excellent blog.

In addition to the new design for Defense Tech, we'll be adding more features in the months to come. But starting today, readers can expect an expanded roster of news, tidbits, rumors, and analysis about the future of national security. We're also setting up a forum, so you can discuss the latest in military technology, defense news, and security trends. Expect more soon, including interviews with some of the key figures behind the changing face of defense.

If you aren't already reading DT, go on over and check it out. Well worth an addition to your bookmarks.


Congrats to Noah.

When does a blog become not a blog? The more popular a site becomes, the more it begins to look like a business rather than just a guy in his pyjamas at home.

Now that we are seeing mergers and acquisitions in the blogger media and expansion to more polished and professional web pages, will there not come a point when these "blogs" morph into the mainstream media?
